Elephant in the Room

“The Elephant in the Room” is a one-woman play written and directed by Elena Telbis at Theatre 199, starring Stefka Yanorova. It follows a therapy session that was meant to last about an hour but turns into something completely unexpected, upending everything. The play won both the professional and alternative jury awards for best production at the “X Solo Act” monodrama festival in Gabrovo, and received nominations for the Askeer Award (contemporary Bulgarian drama) and the Ikar Award (dramaturgy and lead female role).
